Customise Clustered Column Chart Bars

Hi,

 

Does anyone know if there is a way to customise the bar color?

 

For example, current month = Mar 2021, months before Mar2021 is light blue, Mar 2021 and onwards is dark blue. Likewise for the Grey bars.

 

Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

 

 

What I want to achieve:
